Andrew Dickey - Black Bike Vol. 1

We knew that eight-time Australian Champion Andrew Dickey, the man that brought us the fantastic Art of Bike, was working on a crazy new video; the screenshots that the BikeTrials Direct/TNN rider posted online over the weekend were impressive enough, with a huge gap from the top of the psychiatric wing (fittingly) of the Austin Hospital in Heidelberg, near Melbourne… But we were NOT expecting this! His insane new video has been online for a few hours now and it. is. amazing.

When elite trials riders hit the streets, it’s always pretty impressive, but this is one of the best ‘elite street’ videos we’ve ever seen. Andrew seems to know no fear (or physics!) as he throws his sprayed-black Echo Mark II around some huge lines, each more spectacular than the last, with complete control and bags of style. This is a truly brilliant video, filmed with several cameras and the help of friends Gemma and Paul, brilliantly edited and jam-packed with top quality riding. Another one to add to the watch-again-and-again list! For those of you who haven’t heard of him before, check out our interview with him here: Who is Andrew Dickey ? [translation coming soon].
